Tesco and Sainsbury's shoppers have been told to return a ready meal that has been recalled over health fears.
Shoppers are being urged to return the 'Scratch Chicken Pad Thai with Noodles and Veggies' because of undeclared peanuts, ChronicleLive reports. Scratch Meals Ltd says it is recalling the product because it contains peanuts, which are not mentioned on the label.
This means it is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to peanuts. Full details of the affected batches, with the pack size and 'use by' dates are detailed below.
